UBR2 encodes an E3 ubiquitin ligase of the N-end rule proteolytic pathway that targets proteins with destabilizing N-terminal residues for polyubiquitylation and proteasome-mediated degradation. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. UBR2 (Ubiquitin Protein Ligase E3 Component N-Recognin 2) is a Protein Coding gene. Diseases associated with UBR2 include Johanson-Blizzard Syndrome and Rapadilino Syndrome. Among its related pathways are SMAD Signaling Network and Class I MHC mediated antigen processing and presentation.
